Hello everybody, welcome to my channel. Today I am going to recap and explain the
episode 3 of the Wheel of time series. This is a short episode as far as story goes. It
starts where the episode second ended. Nynaeve was holding a sword on Lan, and here we see
a flashback. Nynaeve was kidnapped by a Trolloc. She woke up in its camp and quickly ran from
there to the bathing area where she hid herself in water. When one of the Trolloc followed
her there and started searching, she attacked it from behind and killed it. Later she used
her power of listening to wind and tracked down Lan and Moiraine. I must say she is quite
a skilled one, she tracked a long distance and kept herself safe from Trollocs who were
following Moiraine and others. Lan was also impressed as it was very difficult for ordinary
wisdom to do such a thing. Later he started explaining to her that it was his fault that
they all got separated. Moiraine has nothing to do with it. She was unconsious the whole
time in Shadar Logoth. Nynaeve was not convinced, she tried to threaten him, but Lan easily
over powered her.Mat and Rand were searching for Egwene and Perian. They were travelling
in the eastern direction. Mat wanted to go back home for his sisters while Rand was insisting
that they must find Egwene. He says we must find our friends, there is no point in going
back to two rivers as Trollocs will track us down. The only safe place is the white
tower and Aeis Sedais. He convinces Mat some how and these guys move forward. Egwene and
Perrian were shivering from cold as they came out from that river. They were being followed
by a pack of wolves which scared them. Perrian was trying hard to generate fire from his
knife while Egwene was trying to channel her little One Power. Somehow, the fire started,
but both of them were not sure who actually did it. Both of these also decided to move
ahead in the eastern direction as they thought Rand and Mat would do so.Next morning Lan
asked help from Nynaeve as she was Wisdom. She could treat Moiraine, but she put a condition
on it, saying that she needed her answers. Lan agreed. She grabbed some herbs from the
nearby area and made some sort of medicine and applied it on Moiraine's wound. The bond
between the Aies Sedai and her Warder was always deep, they could feel all their pain
and happiness. As Nynaeve administered the medicine, Lan also felt the pain.Perrian had
another nightmare dream where he saw a wolf eating Laila. Once again, he saw that glowing
eye demon which made him wake up in panic. Later he and Egwene started running from there
as the real wolves started following them. Upon reaching an open ground, wolves stopped
following them. It seemed they were guiding them to this particular location.Mat and Rand
arrived at a village. At its entrance there was a body of someone who was executed. A
diamond-shaped stone was hanging from it which looked expensive. Being a good thief, Mat
observed it closely. Later they entered the local bar. Here we are introduced to a new
character, a Gleeman named Thom Merrilin, who sings a very sad song. Its importance
we will know later in the episodes. Here Gleemans are entertainers, they often travel between
towns, villages, inns and taverns. They are expected to be masterful story tellers as
well as acrobats, and they typically wear a cloak made of many colorful patches. The
most skilled Gleemens always play one sort of instrument. While Thom was singing, a local
thief stole Mat's money. Later Thom stole the same money from that thief and showed
it to Mat. Instead of giving it to him, he gave him a lecture on life. He said one must
not trust anyone in places like this. Since these two guys had no money or a place to
sleep, and they asked the barn owner Dena for any work. Dena gave them a job of wood
chopping for stay. Mat was not interested in going to that white tower, so he insisted
again that they should go back. To their village. He changed his mind took up the job of a waiter
to earn money so that he could go back.Moriane's condition was not getting better, Lan understood
that. She needed the One Power as Trolloc poison can only be healed by One Power. Hence,
he decided to get some help. He asked Nynaeve to look after her as he went away to find
another Aies Sedai. Nynaeve continued treating Moraine when she whispered about someone called
Siuan. Perrian and Egwene found some carriage tracks on the road, they followed it and ended
up surrounded by a few people. These people were Tinkers, the Traveling People, and they
took Perrin and Egwene in and provided them with food and blankets. These people used
to live with non-violence and by travelling from one place to another. Late at night Mat
was stealing that diamond from that dead guy's body. That's when Tom came there and asked
him what he was doing. He told him that this guy was an Aiel, a fighter from the Aiel Wastes.
Many people believe they are as bad as Trollocs, but it's not true. They fight only when they
are in veil. He had none, which means the villagers killed this guy out of fear and
ignorance. All the Aiel have red hair, that's how they found him. Mat told Thom that he
needed money to go back to the village, so he was stealing the diamond. Thom understood
and allowed him.In the bar cum lodge, Dina showed Rand's room for the night. It was quite
a good one, she started to flirt with him, but when Rand gave her a cold shoulder, she
got really upset. Then she showed her true colors, she was one of the dark one's followers,
she had sold her soul to him. She now locked the room and threatened Rand with a sword.
Rand was shocked and confused, he started to barge out the other thick wooden door to
escape. Deena asked him to stop as that door was so thick that even three people can't
crash it. So there was no point in Rand alone trying it. But to Denna's surprise and even
Rand's surprise, he broke the door. Rand may or may not be the real dragon, but the case
for him is strong.Mat and Thom buried that soldier. Mat stole his money from Thom, to
which Thom smiled and approved. When Matt returned to the bar, he bumped into Rand and
both caught up with Dena. She tried to convince them, she says, the dragon is not our saviour,
the dark one is, he will end the tyranny of the wheel. We must break the wheel, otherwise
the wheel will keep on turning souls back into our lives for ages. The people will keep
on suffering, this will not end. I saw all five of you in my dreams, the dark one has
many followers, many people are helping him. I have informed the Fade. This time I will
be the one who will bring the dragon to him. As she was saying this, Thom threw a knife
into her neck and killed her. Later Thom and both of these guys started running from here
on horses in the eastern direction.Next morning Lane, Moriane and Nynaeve were travelling
down the road. Here they met Liandrin Aies Sedai and other green Aies Sedai. Liandrin
was a member of the Red Ajah of Aies Sedai. They have captured a man who was calling himself
the dragon reborn. They captured him from the south of the two rivers district where
the war was going on. With this, the episode three. A place of safety ends. In the next
episode we will know who this guy really is. Thanks for watching. Take care.
